What is your dream coaching staff, within reason, for LSU and Lane? If he’s the next HC.

I’d like to think Frank Wilson, and Corey Raymond are locks to be on the next staff, no matter what. Louisiana and recruiting are locked down with them two. Keeping Baker would be solid. Ed O as DL coach would be cinema.

HC: Lane Kiffin
OC/QB’s: Charlie Weis Jr.
RB’s/RC: Frank Wilson
WR’s: Joker Phillips
OL: Sam Pittman

DC/LB’s: Blake Baker
DL/RC: Ed Orgeron
CB’s: Corey Raymond
Safeties: Jake Olsen

ST: Greg McMahon

Strength and Conditioning: Tommy Moffitt
GM: Austin Thomas

Feels like Wilson, Raymond, Baker, and Thomas are pretty much guaranteed. Very plausible to say Orgeron could return, and Weis would follow Lane. I can see this staff being able to convince Moffitt on a return. Jake Olsen has been a good coach, would like to retain him as well. LSU’s special teams were lock down with McMahon, and he’s only been out of the game for 1 season.

The left field candidates of Pittman and Joker Phillips are the only ones that may be a pipe dream.

This staff here would be elite. What are some of y’all’s possible staff’s, or wants on the next staff?

Kyle Williams needs to stay at DL coach, Oregon can be an assistant of some kind and be involved in recruiting as well.

I would be okay with that. 2 Defensive Line coaches, and give O title of Recruiting coordinator, along with Wilson possibly.

I don’t see Olsen getting retained and Peoples feels more likely to be retained as well

I’m good with Peoples getting retained. Just don’t know how that looks. I can see a Kiffin O reunion. If O comes on, and Peoples stays, Kyle Williams is likely out the door.

Moffitt is never coming back unless he got fired. LSU did him dirty

Nice analysis. Would you prefer Sean Mcvay as OC, and 2005 Bill Belichick as the DC?

Frank Wilson shouldn't be the RB coach.

I don’t prefer him as the RB coach. RB’s have shown little to no progression, and in some cases regression under him.

Sounds like he will be retained though. I’d be good with Wilson taking on Recruiting Coordinator role, and going in a different direction on RB’s coach, but we will have to see.

Joker, if that happens we will get worse at WR.

100%. Kyle has earned the chance to be great in that position. Yes O brought us 2019 but he also brought this program down to its knees and he’s been paid handsomely to do so. He’s a loose cannon. Give me Kyle with his hunger and desire vs someone who needs money 5 years after getting $17M, minus the ex’s donations.

A much better, more realistic staff would be:

HC - Kiffin
OC/QB - Charlie Weis, Jr (comes with Kiffin)
RB - Kevin Smith (comes with Kiffin)
WR - George McDonald (comes with Kiffin)
OL - John Garrison (comes with Kiffin)
TE - Joe Cox (comes with Kiffin)
AHC/Recruiting Coordinator - Frank Wilson

DC - Pete Golding (comes with Kiffin)
DL (Interior) - Randall Joyner (comes with Kiffin)
Edge/OLB - Kevin Peoples (retained by Kiffin)
CB - Corey Raymond (retained by Kiffin)
S - Wes Neighbors (comes with Kiffin)
Def Analyst - Kyle Williams (retained by Kiffin)
Def Analyst - Chris Kiffin (comes with Kiffin)

ST - Jake Schoonover (comes with Kiffin)

If O would take it, make him Asst or Co-Recruiting Coordinator/Def Analyst

Assuming Blake Baker gets HC job at Tulane or another school.

My list is fairly realistic outside of 2-3 names.

Good analysis.

Golding likely remains in Oxford.

I’d imagine Lane will bring more of his guys than I mentioned, but I don’t believe he will bring 90% of his Ole Miss staff with him.
